Em.pow.er: To give someone the power to do something, to make stronger and more confident

If it's important to you, then it's important to us.

We are a unique and very different specialist employment law firm with a non-traditional and straightforward approach, based in Aberdeen, Scotland. We help businesses and individuals throughout the UK and overseas.Over the past few years we have helped both employers and employees to solve a wide range of employment issues, combining a specialist knowledge of employment law with an understanding of people; and a recognition of the importance of strategic thought and communication.

We advise employers on small day-to-day employment issues as well as larger projects, such as redundancy programmes and TUPE transfers. We help employees to put things into perspective and make good life choices.

We help to resolve workplace conflict in a variety of ways, such as dispute pre-emption, negotiation and mediation. Although our focus is to avoid and manage conflict to a positive outcome where possible, we do also represent employers before employment tribunals throughout the UK if needs be.

Whatever it is we are doing our job is always to add value. If we are not helping you to solve a problem, create a better future or build a happier more profitable team then we are not doing our job. We will always try to combine a specialist knowledge of employment law with a positive focus, vibrant energy and a practical human touch.

We love what we do and we work together with other carefully chosen and like-minded alliance partners who have a similar proactive approach, operating in the fields such as HR, psycholology, health and safety, performance management, outplacement, leadership, business protection, accountancy, corporate and commercial law and outplacement to provide a truly holistic service to our clients.

Although we don't take a traditional approach to the practice of law, as we are solicitors we are regulated by the Law Society of Scotland.

We run our own business and have been round the block a few times so we have most of the t-shirts and understand what it is like to be in business or be in a team. That is why our help is often delivered with quite a lot of business savvy and worldliness and a large dollop of common sense.

We consider that we are lucky to work with our clients who are fantastic people and a joy to spend time with. They tell us they find us friendly, caring, approachable, intuitive, compassionate, down to earth, unstuffy and always there to help.

If you think we may be able to help in some way or would simply like to talk to us to find out a bit more then give us a call or pop us an email and let's have a chat.
